Just found out she already filed

Oh I know figs...I adore my little girl but try to keep the balance too.

In regard to being daddy's friend I just meant she'll just be difficult for no apparent reason- and a good segway into the rest of the journaling.

So Sun, I decided to take DD to watch Toy Story 3 in 3D. On the way she was happy, we stopped at Pei Wei (Asian food) and had lunch. After lunch we had Ben-n-Jerry's (hardly ever eat out especially sweets etc) I wanted it to be a special/fun time. Then we watched the movie- which was pretty good. Lots of lines in there that reminded me of my sitch...you know, feeling the sense of belonging to someone who's outgrown you? Anyway after the movie she started acting up...I asked if she liked the movie she just kinda nodded. I tried to hold her hand as we were walking out of the movie and she pulled her arm away. I asked her to drink some water (it was hot) and she just said 'no!'. Then at home she brought her Legos over and said if the neighbor's kids could come over to play, I said no (her mom's been avoiding letting the kid play, probably because stbxw said something? I don't know) but I sat down to play with her and she pulled the legos away saying she didn't want me to play with her. That's when I decided enough was enough and it was time to talk. So in a strict tone I told her "DD, that's no acceptable. You don't talk or behave that way with mommy or daddy. You use the words please and thank-you. Remember when you said you wanted to go camping with mommy and daddy said he'll take you? and you said no you want to go with mommy only? that's not nice either because that hurts daddy's feelings" - by now she's in tears and nodding her head. Then I told her that daddy loves her very much but she needs to be polite and nice. She wanted hugs so I picked her up and gave her lots of hugs and kisses. Then she was super nice and even helped me wash the car on her own. Cleaned her room etc. and was in a much happier mood after that.

Now I miss her as she's with stbxw today and tomorrow. It's also her first day of after school daisy camp at the lake.

STBXW sent this email a little while ago:


Ok I got a router on CL but the wireless doesn't work. Can I plug the msft one into this one? Also I couldn't get the msft one to work and I don't know its address to get into its settings.

Did you find the red fitted sheet? It probably looks just like the one DD has from Ikea for her bed. Its a soft jersey material and should say Full size on the tag.

Thanks.


Intereting that she already got the router/modem from craigslist...that was fast. So I guess I should tell her how to configure it and stuff since she's asking for help?
